One less candidate to consider in 08...while he's at it, I think he should float a trial balloon advocating a return of Jim Crow...could create a lot of jobs constructing separate facilities throughout the state!

I totally disagree with your whole premise. I think that the vast majority of people have no problem with a person being gay. But by the same token, the vast majority of people are not in favor of gay marriage. Just because a person is not in favor of gay marriage, that does not make the person a bigot. I don't think that most people care about what other people are doing in the bedroom. But that is a different issue than marriage.

Just because there are certain laws, that does not mean that the government is telling you what to do in your bedroom. I am not allowed to have 5 wives. You may think that this means that the government is sticking their head in my bedroom. I don't see it that way. The government is not telling me that I can't sleep with 5 women. They are only telling me that I can't be married to 5 different women. There is a big difference.
